For what it may be worth, the current conversion from 280 € (the lower price mentioned in the post) to US dollars showed $296.14 US.

It's not big enough to handle comic books well, which is pretty much the #1 reason for color in an eReader. You're far better off getting a 10" eInk device without color (good size for comics and other fixed layout) or a tablet ($120 for an 8" device, and around $200 for a 10-11").

For reference the Kobo Sage currently costs 299 € in Spain. The InkPad 3 Color + cover I can buy for 288 €. It doesn't seem expensive at all.

A different question is what you want a colour e-reader for and which one is the most convenient. And of course, we can compare it with any product we want, but a black and white e-reader (which has no colour) and a tablet (which is not e-ink) are not colour e-readers. They are something else. And I think it's wonderful that everyone can use whatever device they want to read (comics, novels, or whatever they want).
